Bags made from a garage in Naarm Melbourne

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

💚🧡 @_chatterbags appreciation post! 🧡💚

Zane made these custom bags for me before my Euro tour last year. The frame bag has big sturdy zippers, a hydration/cable port, double pockets, an elasticated stuff pocket on the non-drive side, and a flipped lower zipper for use with a @botched.bikes Dragonfly cage. It also features a cargo net on the non-drive side which I hadn’t seen any other bag makers do before him. He sold the concept to me when I visited him in Naarm and he carried a carton of eggs home on the outside of his already full framey 🥚 So good.

The bar bag is sized perfectly to clear my crown mounted light and has a load of extra webbing on the rear for tying it down to my @ratkingframes cradle. I have thraaashed this thing and it’s unwaveringly sturdy. Any other setup I’ve run has come loose or rubbed something to death.

Believe it or not I tend to avoid loud colours but I wanted to show off Zane’s work so we went party mode 🥳 The orange has worked out so well for on-road visibility and I got so many compliments on the bags. I think a few admirers even hit up Zane for their own from the other side of the world.

So stoked on these bags and for people like Zane working hard to make cool stuff for our beloved bikes. Hit him up if you’re in the market for some dripped out storage solutions 🔥 by @_chatterbags

Did you know that framebag cargo nets are probably one of the hottest accessories of 2025?

I've been working on something a little different.

It's just a market tote, not a bike bag.

If It happens to fit snuggly in your wald 137, that's probably just a coincidence and not by design. 🤷‍♂️
